For the last two days, Sean Duffy has been blaming Pete Buttigieg, Joe Biden, the Democrats, and anyone else he can think of for the fact that under *HIS* watch, planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. Maybe fewer joyrides to the Daytona 500 and a little more attention paid to transportation.

Most of us can't get to DC to protest what is happening to our government, but we do have options.

Come out and participate in an international picket #TeslaTakeover locally.

Stand up and be counted!

Vance posted on X: “Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.” You mean Trump’s “power” being used to violate our Constitution? The Constitution is not something any president can manipulate for political games.

There is still beauty in this world
Judge rules that Black church in DC, which won a $2.8 million default judgment against the Proud Boys, now gains control over the trademark “Proud Boys.” The far-right group is barred from selling any related merchandise or symbols without the consent of the church. Gift link:

The parents are with us now. They have been evacuated. Let’s hope this Hughes fire in the Castaic and Santa Clarita area gets under control. Please please please rain this weekend. Emotional roller coaster. This was the view from their back yard. #californiafires #california

Eugenia sp Casca Molle - When a seed goes too long it might have an outer shell that may need to be cracked to expose the true seed. In this case, I figured just take a hammer to it and find out :) Now it will either germinate or rot. Fingers crossed. #garden #gardening #gardentips #fruit #rarefruit

Every new year we make sure we’re outside to see this amazing flyover from our yard.

This is one of the cool perks of being a gardener in Los Angeles!

Red Surinam cherry versus the black Surinam cherry. Look how crazy the size difference is. The black has a superior flavor, but the red is just a lot more to eat. #surianmcherry #eugenia #fruit #garden

During the Renaissance, women are believed to have used the juice of the berries as eyedrops, intended to dilate their pupils and make them more seductive. DO NOT EAT or TOUCH any part of this plant. However beautiful, all parts are toxic. #garden #nightshade #solanaceae #Drusilla #gardeningfacts
